3 Things That Are Dirtier Than You Think

No, I’m not talking about sex. If you lovely readers are looking for raunchy bedroom action, pick up 50 Shades of Grey or tune into ABC’s Bachelor Pad this Monday.

The Biggest and Best Carrot Cake in the World

I try to keep it skinny on Witty + Pretty, but sometimes a treat descends from the dessert heavens that is so worth every calorie I have to talk it up, even if it takes our six packs to fives. (If you have an actual six pack, I don’t want to hear about it.) Last … Read more

What to Eat Before and After a Workout

It’s a common question: What the F should you eat before and after your fitness regime to ensure optimal performance and a bangin’ bod to boot?! SPOILER ALERT: It’s not Domino’s with a side of General Tso’s chicken and/or anything you order by number and pick up at the second window.  Health and fitness expert … Read more

Anti-Aging ALERT: Clarisonic Opal Review

I love objects that vibrate. Minds out of the gutters, pervs; I’m talking about the Clarisonic Opal, the revolutionary, palm-sized beauty contraption that infuses anti-aging serum into your delicate (read: wrinkle-prone) eye area way better than your bare hands “by gently tapping the skin at 125 sonic movements per second.” This “sonic infusion” technology “hydrates, … Read more

Get Naked: The 3 Best Palettes for Sexy, Smoky Eyes

Nothing says sexy like a smoky eye. But let’s be honest, just like something else in the bedroom department, it can be hard for a girl to achieve.

My New Carpet (It Doesn’t Match the Drapes)

Okay, I couldn’t resist that joke, but I DID get a new area rug and I’m still in that “Does this look totally awesome or really stupid?” decision mode, although I think I’m leaning toward the former. It all went down on Saturday when I was leaning over my back porch with my old rug, … Read more

How to De-Bone a Fish Like a Lady

There are some things you never think about having to do until they’re placed right in front of your face. Like this fish last week at Lure: I mean, I didn’t know what the hell to do with that. And not only was I confused…I was a little scared. But then I noticed a handy … Read more

Witty + Pretty City: Charlotte’s Fly & Dry

The beauty and fitness Gods were smiling (make that grinning from ear to ear) on Atlanta when they placed Flywheel Sports right next to Drybar. Which means you can do a little dance we like to call “fly and dry”–get your sweaty spin on, then walk next door and let someone else wash and blow … Read more

I’m just kidding, none of you guys are losers. Unless my ex-boyfriend Mark is reading. Kidding again. I never dated a Mark (that I know of). In the past week, we’ve touched on blowjobs (no pun intended), … Read more

Girls Season 2 Finale Recap: Were We Watching a Rom-Com?

Let me be clear that Sex and the City is my favorite show of all time. But the reason I like Girls is that it’s NOT Sex and the City. It’s dark (and depressing at times) and makes me feel awkward and weird, but still makes me laugh out loud when I’m least expecting it. … Read more
